We had a discussion about domains that need to set both PSD=Y and PSD=N.   It highlighted one of the problems with using a tag which implies mutual exclusivity when exclusivity does not apply.

The stated solution was that when PSD=Y is found on the same-domain policy, then PSD=N is also assumed, which implies that strict alignment is also applied.   This seemed like a reasonable solution.

However, I cannot find any reference to this principle in the specification.   What happened?


To impose strict alignment to PSDs which send mail was hypothesized in March. Afterwards, the algorithm was changed by disregarding psd=y at step 2; that is, on the domain input to the algorithm. Therefore, a sending (or signing) PSD operates as part of its org domain.

In an example I posted, I showed that mail.psd.org.example cannot work to authenticate From: [email protected]. However, a sibling like signing.org.example would be in relaxed alignment.

I still think an example like this is clarifying, albeit unreal.
